Issues¶ ↑
unicorn-public@bogomips.org is the best place to report bugs, submit patches and/or obtain support after you have searched the email archives and documentation.
-
No subscription will ever be required to email the public inbox.
-
Cc: all participants in a thread or commit, as subscription is optional
-
Do not top post in replies
-
Quote as little as possible of the message you're replying to
-
Do not send HTML mail, it will likely be flagged as spam
If your issue is of a sensitive nature or you're just shy in public, then feel free to email us privately at unicorn@bogomips.org instead and your issue will be handled discreetly.
If you don't get a response within a few days, we may have forgotten about it so feel free to ask again.
Bugs in related projects¶ ↑
unicorn is sometimes affected by bugs in its dependencies. Bugs triggered by unicorn in mainline Ruby, rack, GNU C library (glibc), or the Linux kernel will be reported upstream and fixed.
For bugs in Ruby itself, we may forward bugs to bugs.ruby-lang.org/ and discuss+fix them on the ruby-core list at ruby-core@ruby-lang.org Subscription to post is required to ruby-core, unfortunately: ruby-core-request@ruby-lang.org?subject=subscribe
For uncommon bugs in Rack, we may forward bugs to rack-devel@googlegroups.com and discuss there. Subscription (without any web UI or Google account) is possible via: rack-devel+subscribe@googlegroups.com Note: not everyone can use the proprietary bug tracker used by Rack, but their mailing list remains operational.
Uncommon bugs we encounter in the Linux kernel should be Cc:-ed to the Linux kernel mailing list (LKML) at linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org and subsystem maintainers such as netdev@vger.kernel.org (for networking issues). It is expected practice to Cc: anybody involved with any problematic commits (including those in the Signed-off-by: and other trailer lines). No subscription is necessary, and the our mailing list follows the same conventions as LKML for interopability. There is a kernel.org Bugzilla instance, but it is ignored by most developers.
Likewise for any rare glibc bugs we might encounter, we should Cc: libc-alpha@sourceware.org Keep in mind glibc upstream does use Bugzilla for tracking bugs: sourceware.org/bugzilla/
Submitting Patches¶ ↑
See the HACKING document (and additionally, the SubmittingPatches document distributed with git) on guidelines for patch submission.

We operate a public-inbox which feeds the mailing list. You may subscribe either using ssoma or by sending a mail to unicorn-public+subscribe@bogomips.org
ssoma is a mail archiver/fetcher using git. It operates in a similar fashion to tools such as slrnpull, fetchmail, or getmail. ssoma subscription instructions:
URL=git://bogomips.org/unicorn-public LISTNAME=unicorn # to initialize a maildir (this may be a new or existing maildir, # ssoma will not touch existing messages) # If you prefer mbox, use mbox:/path/to/mbox as the last argument # You may also use imap://$MAILSERVER/INBOX for an IMAP account # or imaps:// for an IMAPS account, as well. ssoma add $LISTNAME $URL maildir:/path/to/maildir # read with your favorite MUA (only using mutt as an example) mutt -f /path/to/maildir # (or /path/to/mbox) # to keep your mbox or maildir up-to-date, periodically run the following: ssoma sync $LISTNAME # your MUA may modify and delete messages from the maildir or mbox, # this does not affect ssoma functionality at all # to sync all your ssoma subscriptions ssoma sync # You may wish to sync in your cronjob ssoma sync --cron
